The change in activated sludge surface properties after heavy metals leaching - Journal of Water Chemistry and Technology Volume , number , .
The change in colloid-chemical properties of natural sludge sol formed as a result of biological treatment of domestic wastewater in the process of heavy metals leaching induced by metabolizing heterotrophic (acidogenic and alkaligenic) chemotrophic biocoenosis was investigated. It was found that bioleaching of heavy metals involving heterotrophs results in hydrophobization of sludge colloids and reduces its negative charge. Heavy metals leaching also results in destabilization of sludge sol, maximum in biological processes. Exopolysaccharides significantly stabilizing sludge sol have a little effect on its stability after heavy metals have been leached.
